Long Island Rail Road strike is over, New York Gov. Hochul says
The LIRR strike ended with Gov. Hochul saying a deal was reached and service will resume in phases, with no fare or tax increases. Reports from The Associated Press, CNN, and ABC News state the agreement delivers raises for workers while protecting riders and taxpayers, and notes phased resumption starting at noon. The New York Times highlights that commuters endured detours during the strike and that talks led to a deal late Monday; the New York Post emphasizes concessions on pay and contract terms. Where disagreement exists, AP quotes Hochul on no fare hikes; NYT notes the strike disruption; others echo the wage gains and phased restoration.
Concrete downstream impact: service resumes in phases starting at noon, with workers returning to work and no fare hikes or tax increases reported by multiple outlets (AP, CNN, ABC, NYT).
